How easily do the limbs extend? Is there just a small tab (or something similar) that could grind down with age, and cause the limbs to slide into SW mode?

Thanks for the video review and pics, Peaugh. This looks like an awesome figure - definite pick-up for me.

I want him as much as I wanted Blitzwing... in other words Shocky can never get here soon enough.

Can we get a shot of Longarm with the autobots for his size comparison?

I already did:

This has been the best year to be a G1 nostilgia collector. Seeing the pic with the top 5 G1 Cons almost makes me wanna sell all the Energon Cons I've been holding on too

I'm not sure. They click into place in both lengths, but all of the mechanisms are internal and I haven't actually opened him to to see how they work.

Were there any in particular you wanted? I took a shot with him and the rest of the Guard a few pages back:

Yay, finally saw your review, Peaugh!

I will definitely be picking up Shockwave, hopefully as soon as I can find him. That pic of the Elite Guard really makes Sentinel look dwarfish.

(PS - Nice touch with the celebration at the end of the vid).

you know im on the boat of im glad this dude aint purple i mean if he was we would of known it was shockie and i dont think his color matters as much as the personality and the head look i mean the antlers might throw you but what better way to intercept incoming messages form any where then some head gear like that. now i love g1 shock and yes i love energon shock dont ask me why i love the BFG attached to his arm, he is kinda like a g1 shockie mixed with g1 SS so he cant have a puny cannon he needs BFG. but to my point on this one the fact is you can tell its the same toy in all 4-5-90 fan modes we eventually find but the fact that they look so different in robot mode is great i mean P/CP i love him but really that was about the last time we had something like this wasnt it. its kinda nice to have such thought going into the chars and the toys huzzah for hasbro. and peaugh can you take a pic of you boxing him up and sending him to me please?
